It seems difficult to get to key nuggets of very specific, very nitpicky, but very necessary information throughout the game. Feats, the super-traits that help define a character, often include their exact rules effects in their descriptions, but not always. And they don't list what other feats they make available, making plotting a character's advancement tough. These are all bits of information you can find, but it involves opening up your pen and paper rules and going through those - exactly what D&D fans are hoping to not have to do, and exactly what non-D&D fans absolutely aren't going to do. I'm hoping this gets changed before release, and I think it's feasible. A pop-up that warns "You will be encumbered if you loot this, y/n?" should at least be an option. One that also says "And then that Orc will totally catch you this round, and you'll be trapped in melee, and that's no good for your spellcaster, so don't do it, okay?" wouldn't hurt either. At the very least a warning when you're about to cripple your character is necessary.
